Park City hotels offers help for those displaced by the Parleys Canyon Fire
Park City, Utah — People who live in Summit County won’t be able to return home until at least August 19 because of a fire in Parley’s Canyon that started on August 14.
Peak Hotel is offering people who can’t go back home right now rooms at a discount.
At this time, all 127 rooms are now booked, with 70 percent of them occupied by evacuees from the fire.
According to Peak Hotel officials, rooms started opening up on Sunday, and so they pulled out all the stops to help people who were forced to evacuate.
“There are employee rates, so our employees get to stay for 35 dollars, so we just thought, okay. That’s what we are doing. 35 dollars people are misplaced, they don’t need to deal with all the hassle, said Peaks Hotel General Manager Stephanie Samuels.
According to Samuels, they’ll try to accommodate people as long as they can, while the evacuation orders persist, but may have to start sending people away as tourists begin coming back into town.
Other Park City hotels are also stepping up to help accommodate displaced residents.
